Finding and photographing gastropods

If you need help finding snails and slugs, or want to know the best way to photograph them for identification, get some tips from gastropod expert @kevinbonham. His top tips are featured in our latest video and we've turned the info into a fact sheet for easy reference. You can find both video and fact sheet on the Bush Blitz website. Thanks to Geoffrey (@cobaltducks), one of our top contributors, for sharing his observation of a Yellow Cellar Slug (Limacus flavus) with the world - one of the many species of introduced slugs in Australia.
